The resort of Illetas on Mallorca's south-west coast features many beautiful beaches with small coves, striking cliffs, and a double-sided peninsula. With easy access to the city of Palma de Mallorca and neighboring resorts, you can enjoy all the island of Mallorca has to offer. This resort retains an exclusive feel with fewer travelers making it to this resort town, especially not the larger tour groups, providing visitors to this beach resort a little more peace and quiet. However, the picturesque beaches can still get crowded in the peak season. Many visitors compare this destination to Monte Carlo, due to its many high-end and luxury hotels.

Location: Easy Access to Palma de Mallorca

Located just a short drive from Palma de Mallorca, this beachside resort is easy to access to get away and relax while still being close the city. Most people get around the town on foot, but there are also public bus, bicycles, and taxis. Parking can be difficult during peak season, and the hills can make cycling challenging, which is why most people rely upon walking and public transportation to get around the resort town, including to and from Palma de Mallorca.

Culture: Enjoy a Relaxing Evening or Head out to a Club

The quiet resort of Illetas has a few nightclubs, although not as many as in nearby Palma. Many of the hotels feature nightlife entertainment for the guests and other visitors. One of the nicer clubs is the Virtual Club, which during the day is quiet and relaxing, but at night becomes a popular nightclub. It is also easy to travel by bus to nearby Palma to enjoy the nightlife, restaurants, and shops. There, you can see the La Seu Cathedral, which was built over a span of 300 years.

Activities: Enjoy the Beaches or One of the Many Golf Courses

Most visitors come to Illetas to enjoy the stunning beaches, including the small public beach that can become crowded. Most hotels have their own private beaches for guests to enjoy without the crowds. The beautiful ocean and beaches are complemented by greenery in the area, especially the pine-clad hills. The beaches also provide the perfect location for swimming, snorkeling, and enjoying other water sports. There are several golf courses nearby, including the Bendinat and Son Vida courses.
